Leecher Posted October 3, 2016 Report Posted October 3, 2016 Whitespinnerbait and I been hunting smallies the past couple of weekends and must say, they are putting on the feed bag Hight light of our last trip, got myself a PB of nickel status for my efforts 20" inches long and 5Lbs even Trip prior to this, took selfies of the bigger specimens Like the title says... they are schooled up but on a scattered pattern.... and hungry We had to work hard to find them but once located, it was a blast Sand flats around weed patches near drop offs and submerged stumps was the ticket, anywhere from 6' to 15' fow.... they were willing to chump on a variety of lures like: white spinnerbait, white Big'O, 7" white shad rigged texas style and Yum Crawbug on a Stand Up Alien Head jig and Thunderstick Surface lures was not producing much to my surprise but Paul did get a few on Chugbug & Spook. All fish released to be fought another day. Now enough of the jibber jabber and onto the pictures... FISH ON and enjoy Personal best - 5Lbs even - 20" long Double Pleasure Another Beast Brute SMB Selfie

Old Ironmaker Posted October 6, 2016 Report Posted October 6, 2016 It is Hawg Smallie season here on Erie. Nothing to haul in one 5 after another on a simple drop shot rig drifting a shoal drop off, 25 to 30 feet of water. If your going to get a 7 plus now's the time. The problem is getting a day where it doesn't look like the north shore of Oahu
fishindevil Posted October 7, 2016 Report Posted October 7, 2016 Now that's some awesome fall smallies !! Tanks for sure ..... well done guys
